Why not wind down the company and just launch the new AI infra venture separately? Didn't want to fill out the forms again? I can't imagine having the brand baggage of a failed apparel company is a benefit.

I think it is clear the whole AI market is absurd and filled with snake oil. My question is how long can the absurdity last? Perhaps forever. The stock market seems increasingly detached from reality and no one really seems to care.
